It depends of it's hardness I'd guess skin is not leather (in any terms).

If it is a scaled humanoid skin then maybe (if putting in thickness / hardness factors) it could count as thin light scale armor, but still not leather - otherwise I'd guess it would count originally as clothing made from skin - you could enchant it with magic I'd assume and then make up a good back story how it is made of a fallen angel skin that the son of a devil was tough to put down and took enormous effort of all the heroes etc which would make it 'non-evil' I guess?

Clothing isn't evil based on whatever it is made of.

If you curse it+enchant or just decide it is evil and act like it is evil when ever you encounter it is can then probably be evil _to you_, probably some it doesn't matter at all, some might consider it a bit 'not in the style', some repulsive etc.

Skin suit - add fancy additional descriptive names after it.

If you magically enchant it provide same armor factors than some other armor it is magical.

Hope these thoughts gave some insight bonus to your question.

Cheers,

As in your quote 'or you can choose an alternate class reward.'

Yes: You aren't required to take SP/HP for your favored class bonus, but if you take the 'alternative' option, Fast Learner does not provide any additional bonus at that particular level:

• If you pick +1 HP, you gain that HP and a Skill Point as well.
• If you pick +1 SP, you gain that SP and a HP as well.
• If you take an alternative reward, you gain that reward as normal.

Finally, please note that you can't take an Alternative Rewards if it impacts a class feature you don't actually have yet, so your rogue can't take the racial option at level one because he doesn't gain the 'rogue talent' feature until level 2.

As always, your GM has the final word on how all of this works at your table (unless this is for a PFS game).

Maybe it is clearer if we add some parenthesis:

Quote:

Benefit: (When you gain a level in a favored class, you gain both +1 hit point and +1 skill rank instead of choosing either one or the other benefit) or (you can choose an alternate class reward).

The bolded "or" is relative to the two different phrases within the parenthesis.

It isn't:

Quote:

Benefit: When you gain a level in a favored class, you gain both +1 hit point and +1 skill rank instead of choosing either one or the other benefit or you (receive one of the bonuses and) can choose an alternate class reward.

That kind of benefit needs to be explicitly mentioned to be available.

So all in all, you are backing my original mechanics question that if I initially (w/o the feat) select alternative class reward (alt. means in this conjuction that it is not a HP or a SP) and if I have the feat I can select the alternative class reward twice, such as:

2. Initial Choice (class reward 1/x Rogue Talent) + alternative class reward from feat (1/x Rogue Talent) = 2x RTF

Yes?

I have the mechanics side approach to this question:

Example: Human, Rogue

1st Level feat: Fast Learner
1st Level normal FCB: 1/x Rogue Talent (RTF - Rogue Talent Fraction)

Thus in above (marked now as I:C [initial choice]) I did not pick Hit points nor Skill points and thus did not receive it.

Does following different outcomes come with the Fast Learner:

1. I:C + 1 hit point and 1 skill point = RTF + 1HP + 1SK per level

2. I:C + 1/x Rogue Talent = 2x RTF

And if (2) does following mechanics apply:

1. You gain Extra Rogue Talent faster aka. with fraction 1/4 you would gain RT at level 4 earliest - thus you would RT faster at level 2 (due getting 2x RTF per Favored Class Level. See I:C if started to headspin) ? (See below follow up questions)

2. You receive the Extra Rogue Talent on the level as it would normally have full RTF? So in this

3. or can you choose to spend gained extra rogue talent(s) on level of choosing?

Follow Up questions on mechanics:

If option 1 what if there is nothing to select?

If options 2 or/and 3 then all is clear.

Please advice.
